The Sorcerer Supreme of Kamateki was there. Ancient One looked a little older than the last time he saw him. Li Jie did not know if it was an illusion.
Ancient One had two inconspicuous wrinkles on his face, and his originally spirited eyes also revealed a trace of fatigue.
He looked at Li Jie and smiled, as if he was seeing a student who had returned after a long journey, with a trace of kindness and expectation. "Welcome, Nightcrawler. I heard that you are looking forward to learning more about Kamateki."
"Yes, you have said that before. If necessary, I can learn all kinds of knowledge in Kamateki, including various metaphysical knowledge, and you said that you are willing to teach me. "Li Jie responded.
"Of course, the Sorcerer always keeps his promise. I have already informed the King. He is the librarian, you can now choose the books you want to read. "Ancient One had already sent a message to the King through magic.
"The basic things, the King and Lan can teach you. When you feel that their knowledge is not enough to teach you, you can come to me. "
"Sorcerer, I don't know if it is my illusion, but you look very tired?" Li Jie originally wanted to leave this place and go to the library in Kamateki, but before he left, he could not help but ask.
"Sometimes, yes. After all, I am already a few hundred years old. People get tired easily when they get old. "Ancient One smiled silently, what he said seemed to be very reasonable.
"It is hard for me to imagine, a strong person like you, will …" Li Jie said halfway and did not know how to continue.
It was a mistake to speak rashly. He had not thought of the most suitable adjective to describe Ancient One's current state without offending his dignity.
"Will you age so quickly?" Ancient One did not care about Li Jie's unintentional offense. In most cases, the Sorcerer Supreme was a generous person.
"Please forgive my rudeness, I did not mean to offend your dignity." Li Jie bowed to Ancient One.
"No, there is no need to apologize. My life is already very long. "Ancient One did not care. "The erosion of life by time is inevitable. Living is only part of the journey."
"From being ignorant to having vast knowledge, this is only a part of this journey. Living is part, or just the beginning. Death is another part, or even eternal. " Li Jie did not understand Ancient One's words, but it seemed that Ancient One did not want to continue explaining.
"I am sorry, Sorcerer. I have another question to ask you." Li Jie saw that Ancient One did not want to delve into this issue, so he decided to change the question to Ancient One.
"How's the war with Asgard going?" Li Jie asked on behalf of Thor. Thinking of Thor's current appearance, Li Jie's stomach hurt.
Because of the news brought by Valkyrie, the Asgardian Valkyrie had almost become a salted fish.
Every day, the Asgardian Valkyrie would attack Thor and tell Thor about the benefits of Loki.
She was constantly disintegrating Thor's self-confidence and destroying the things that Thor was most proud of.
If the changes in Thor's movie after Thor was thrown into the mortal world by Odin were a bit illogical, the changes were too fast.
Now, the Thor Thor had really become a salted fish, drinking constantly every day. It seemed that he was ready to drink himself to death.
Moreover, the Valkyrie was able to find wine for Thor every day from somewhere.
Li Jie suspected that Valkyrie had a purpose for doing this. So, he did not expose that Thor's life had been too smooth, and he needed to experience setbacks.
Thor's mood was very complicated. He was looking forward to getting news about Asgard, but he was also afraid of getting news about Asgard.
But he still asked Li Jie to help him ask about Asgard's recent war if he went to Kamateki.
"War? Oh, you mean the war with the Dark Elves? "Ancient One replied after thinking for a while.
"Right now, both sides have not officially launched a large-scale attack. Although the border area is densely covered with the clouds of war, Although the war is dense in the border area, there are only some small-scale wars. "
"Loki is a genius. He has an extraordinary talent in war guidance. In the current situation, Asgard has the overall advantage. "Ancient One's answer was not beyond Li Jie's expectations.
It seemed that Thor would continue to be disappointed. Asgard did not need him now.
Is Odin going to use this method to make Thor realize his insignificance? Li Jie guessed that was probably the case.
"About Thor, I hope you can help him rebuild his confidence." Ancient One seemed to have some understanding of Odin's plan. After all, they were old friends for hundreds of years.
"What can I do?" Li Jie shook his head when he thought of Thor, the God of Salted Fish.
"Tell him what a mortal can do. Gods aren't the only ones who are supreme beings. The weak are also extraordinary. Without understanding these, Thor could not become the God of Thunder. And this truth can only be understood by Thor himself, "Ancient One said.
"And you, Nightcrawler. I think you are the best candidate. "
"Why me?"
"Because you started from a humble background."
"So did Spider-man."
"Spider-man is too naive."
"You mean I'm complicated?"
"In comparison, it is."
"Too complicated people aren't a good choice, right?"
"It is a good choice for Thor. He is too naive."
"You want to educate him to be as calculative as Loki? Sorry, I don't think I can be more intelligent than Loki. Compared to him, I am much more stupid. "
"Thor does not need to be calculative. He only needs to understand humility and understand the natural universe."
"Okay, I'll try my best." Li Jie finished speaking and was about to leave here. The conversation with Ancient One always made him feel a little weird.
"Learn more, Nightcrawler. The darkness is coming." Ancient One watched Li Jie leave and muttered to herself.
Kamateki's library was huge. From the outside, it looked like a two-story building. But the vastness of the interior was shocking.
Maybe this was another use of magic.
Kamateki was called the ocean of knowledge for a reason. The abundance of books here made Li Jie speechless.
It was probably not inferior to any national library in the world. Some of the books were even more abundant.
After all, many of the books could only be read by mages.
"Do you believe in nihilism and fatalism?" This was the first thing that King said in the library.
"Sorry, what did you say? I'm just looking for you to read a book. "Li Jie was a little confused by the barrage of questions.
"Are you the one who believes that all truths don't exist?" King's expression reminded Li Jie of the philosophers of the classical school.
Aren't you mages?
"If I believe that truth does not exist, then what do I believe in?" This was a paradoxical question.
"Deny everything, and affirm everything. The history of the past shapes our future. "As King spoke, Lan appeared in the library.
"Has everything you know really happened before? Or are they just illusions? Is everything you've done determined by your own choice, or is it something that happens according to the laws of nature? "
"Has everything been decided by fate, or has it always been nothingness?"
King's words confused Li Jie. "Is this a required course in metaphysics?"
"This is a required course for mages, Ancient One's order," King replied. "Everyone's ability to pass the test is not the same. Some are stronger, some are weaker. "
"Metaphysics is a very dangerous thing, because it involves the exploration of the origin of the universe by generations of supreme mages."
"Not every mage has the opportunity to come into contact with this knowledge, and before you learn it, you must first understand the origin."
King's words surprised Li Jie. The real metaphysics of this world was not as simple as Li Jie thought.
King nodded at Lan and led Li Jie to the deepest part of the library.
Giant bookshelves automatically moved away from the path, and the floor began to flip.
The entire space began to fold strangely. There was no boundary between heaven and earth, and there was no space between up and down.
A fear that came from the deepest part of his heart engulfed Li Jie's body. This was an instinctive fear of the unknown.
Li Jie did not know why he followed King forward. He was clearly trembling in fear.
He glanced at Lan, who was beside him. This beautiful girl was very calm.
Li Jie forced himself to calm down.
